With Dialogue Comes UNDERSTANDING Everyone talks about the importance of interfaith dialogue. Many books offer advice on how to conduct interfaith dialogue. . . but in THIS book, you will find actual transcripts of interfaith dialogues, heated debates, and many conversations in between. Why These Books are SPECIAL What Would a Muslim Say is a series of books documenting my experiences as an interfaith volunteer. Since 2009, I have facilitated dialogue with many different people, answering questions about Islam and addressing misconceptions. This is the third book in the series, covering a variety of conversations from 2011 to 2016. My hope is that this can be a small step towards better understanding and harmony. The conversations in these books are real. Since the focus of this volume is interfaith dialogue; only conversations with self-identified Christians have been included. Some are ecumenical and sympathetic, some are evangelical and confrontational, and some are simply curious. In this book, you will learn about: The Islamic Worldview and Ethics The Apostasy Debate What is Creation For? A Better Understanding in Forty-Two Questions The Islam and Peace Debate The Remembrance of God The Shroud of Turin Debate Why Is There Conflict in the Middle East? A Muslim-Christian Dialogue Why These Books Matter NOW These are timely books. There are many questions, fears, and misconceptions about Islam and Muslims. These books can answer questions, build bridges, and promote understanding. If you want to read real interfaith conversations, featuring everyday Christians asking tough questions and getting straight answers about Islam and Muslims, then this book is for you.
